Dear Goaltenders, Parents,
and Coaches, Today more than ever, young goalies have access to
an endless number of excellent goalie camps, private instruction,
training videos and manuals. As young goalies approach the competitive
high school and college levels, there is often little difference
in the physical capabilities of the goalies vying for the starting
position. The goalie with the
best physical skills isn't always the goalie that makes the top
spot or wins the most games. Why is it that there are goalies with incredible physical
skills who never make it to Division I college hockey or the professional
ranks? Why is it that we see goalies at the highest levels
who don't seem to have world class skills, but are able to consistently
keep the puck out of the net and win hockey games?
The
difference that really counts lies in the goalie's mind.
It is universally agreed that goaltending
is over 80% mental. Unfortunately, over 90% of the training
that a goaltender receives and puts into practice is focused on
the physical game. I know what you're likely thinking...
"Even
if this is true, training the mind is difficult, time
consuming,
and hard to understand. I wouldn't know where to
begin"
Let's face it, training your mind to play better as
a goalie sounds good on paper, but can be very difficult and next
to impossible to actually implement on a consistent basis. The truth
is that this is the missing ingredient that will make the most significant
difference in the level of achievement that you will reach as a
goalie. There are certainly many great goaltending psychology
theories and concepts being talked about at goalie camps and in
goalie instructional manuals and videos, but without a proven,
simple to implement system, most goalies skip over this critical
area completely.
That
is all about to change! You
are going to learn about a revolutionary
new effortless system that will enable
you to
skyrocket your confidence, completely
eradicate all of your self-limiting beliefs, bust
through the mental barriers
that are strangling your progress, and replace your
paralyzing fear of failure and destructive negative
self-talk with the positive
mental programming that is required to play at the
top of your game.
Getting into The Zone Getting into The Zone really means performing
automatically- your mind and body are working in harmony.
This happens when you are so confident, completely relaxed, completely
free of inhibitions, so totally free of worries that you perform
at your best automatically. Even if you can't get into The Zone, or if you have
trouble staying in The Zone, you can train your mind to
get closer to The Zone, and significantly improve your performance.
The Aspects of mental training that can help you get
closer to The Zone include controlling emotions, being calm and
positive, increasing concentration and focus, feeling relaxed yet
highly energized, and increasing confidence.
In his ebook, "Why Is
Sports Psychology Useful," Sports Psychologist Patrick
J. Cohn, Ph.D., makes a very important and relevant statement:
"Most athletes view the
mental game and physical aspects of their sport separately.
There is a false belief that athletes must first master “perfect” technique
or knowledge about the sport before working on mental skills.
My philosophy is that you cannot separate the mental
from the physical when it comes to motor skills. Decisions,
thoughts, images, and feelings drive motor behavior."

ABOUT ME I was drafted during high school by the Edmonton
Oilers in 1985. I Played in college at R.P.I. and UMass
Boston. After attending the Edmonton Oilers training camp in 1989,
I played with the Erie Panthers and the Richmond Renegades of the
ECHL. While playing at these various levels, I constantly
dealt with my own mental barriers that held me back from reaching
my full potential. I understood that it was my mind, and
not my physical game that was holding me back, but I had no idea
how I could change any of it. Nothing I tried seemed to make any
significant difference, and I could not find any system that worked. For this reason, I started
studying sports psychology and more specifically, the psychology
of goaltending, 14 years ago. I have a BA in Psychology
from the University of Massachusetts and I have studied every reputable
peak performance related course and system that I could get my hands
on. I have taken my own lifetime experience as a goaltender,
and combined it with my extensive psychology and peak performance
education to perfect this simple, yet powerful system that
any goalie can easily implement on a consistent basis.
I can only wish that I had access to this system back in my
playing days! Fortunately for you,
there is now such a system, and you have access to it right now.
If
you have been working hard on your physical game, but you still
find that you can not predict when you'll get into what is
commonly
known as "The Zone," this system can help take you there. If
you find that you play great one game, and then struggle during
another game, then this system can help you. Maybe
you find that you play great in practice or in games that do not
hold a lot of significance, but you are not playing at your best
during important games. Maybe
for you the opposite is true; you have no problem "getting
up for" and performing great in the "big game," but
you play poorly against the easy teams. If you deal with
any of these challenges, then you need this course. If
you are ready to get started with our powerful system to completely
re-program your subconscious mind, order here:
Elite
Goalie Coach Testimonials
"A great addition to a goaltender's
toolbox"
Hello Goaltenders and Parents:
At Mind
The Net Goaltending we are always looking for
resources that can help all of our students; from
the Atom goalies across Saskatchewan to our Junior
and College prospects. We have tried to place more
emphasis on developing the whole goaltender including
a greater emphasis on the mental approach to the
game. It is because of our increased emphasis on
mental preparation that we were interested in purchasing
a cd of "The Goalie's Mind".
After only two weeks the goalies mind came in the
mail much to my delight. I immediately opened the package
and read about the the reasoning behind the baroque
music(which is surprisingly exciting and relaxing),
and the repitition of the affirmations. The first part
of the cd contained the relaxation techniques with
slower repititions of the affirmations. The first section
of the cd would be perfect for goaltenders before bed
or while relaxing in the afternoon. My guess is that
if a goaltender falls asleep during the affirmations
that may be beneficial as well. The second half of
the cd is the daytime affirmations. The same affirmations
are repeated but without the formal relaxation methods.
The daytime affirmations would be perfect to listen
to while stretching after a morning skate or while
going through a pre-game routine.
As a former elite goaltender who now coaches elite
goaltenders I see "The Goalie's Mind" as
an excellent addition to any goaltender's toolbox.
As we know it is important for goaltenders to have
many tools to deal with the pressures and exhileration
of goaltending and this tool will help to fine tune
any goaltender's mental game. It is because goaltenders
can be their own worst enemy that it is important to
engrain productive self-talk and "The Goalie's
Mind" is one way to develop those skills.
I highly recommend buying this product for goaltenders
at all levels.
Yours in goaltending,
p.s. The free
e-book is a great tool as well, try it first
and you will be impressed.

"I strongly recommend
this audio program for every goaltender who is serious
about reaching his or her potential"
"In my playing days, I was always
looking for any extra edge to put my emotions and
thoughts into perspective before game time. I have
been teaching goalies all aspects of the game for
many years. I have always believed that the mental
aspect of the game is extremely important, but is
always the toughest to teach. I believe that The
Goalie's Mind Audio Program is a great mental training
tool for all goalies, especially as they get into
the more competitive levels of Hockey. I strongly
recommend this audio program for every goaltender
who is serious about reaching his or her potential.
John has really delivered on something here that
can be very beneficial."

In order to make the
significant changes to your mind that are required in order to play
at your fullest potential consistently, you need to completely re-program
your mind at the subconscious level. That is where
your core beliefs reside. Your core beliefs are the 'main controlling
mechanism' for creating the goalie you become. How do you re-program your subconscious mind?
You need to first clear the negative patterns and then feed your
subconscious every day with appropriate positive self-talk or what
is also knows as affirmations. Studies show that the
average person has over 60,000 thoughts on a given day. Unfortunately
for a lot of people, these thoughts are negative.
You are feeding your mind daily with negative self-talk that negatively
programs your subconscious in a way that is completely opposite
from the way that you want to, and should be, programming your mind
in order to reach your full potential. Now, think about the negative comments that you have
heard over the years from your peers, your teammates, your coaches,
your opponents, your teachers, and sometimes even your parents.
This, combined with your own negative
self-talk, has all led to the negative subconscious programming
that is at the core of all of the mental barriers that are holding
you back. I would like to introduce
you to a revolutionary new system that will help you to completely
re-program your subconscious mind yourself. This
system will first work to clear all of your negative thoughts and
beliefs, and then it works to install the right positive thoughts
and beliefs- the same thoughts and beliefs that most of the goalies
at the highest levels already have. The real power in this system comes from the proven
subconscious programming methods developed by the famed Bulgarian
psychotherapist Dr. Georgi Lozanov. The method is called suggestopedia.
This method has been used for the past 40 years in Accelerated Learning
courses all over the world.

You can read about this method and variations
of this method in the book "Superlearning
2000" by Lynn Schroeder, Sheila Ostrander,
and Nancy Ostrander. |

The effectiveness of suggestopedia has been
proven time and time again in several University studies around
the world. It has been used to help students learn foreign
languages 5 to 10 times faster than normal. Today, suggestopedia is used to clear negative patterns
and install the positive beliefs at the subconscious level- the
positive beliefs that are required to excel at any sport. It is
especially effective when used in athletics that require peak mental
states in order to reach full potential- such as goaltending. I have developed a system
for goaltenders that utilizes a variation of the Suggestopedia methodology.
I have combined a relaxation program, specific Baroque classical
music, negative pattern clearing, and positive affirmations to form
an effective system to help goalies to essentially re-program their
subconscious mind quickly and with little effort. Here is how this revolutionary new system
works:
- 5 minute
total relaxation program to put the listener into
the optimal state to receive the desired suggestions. This
state gives the listener a completely relaxed body, yet a
totally alert mind. It is referred to as alert relaxation.
- Clearing
of all negative patterns. Before any positive affirmations
can be effective, all negative and non-supportive patterns
need to be cleared out. The negative patterns are cleared
using a variation of the proven suggestopedia method. More
on this in a minute.
- Listening
to specific positive affirmations repeated rhythmically
3 times each, over the special "Baroque
Background Music". More on this in a
minute.
The
real power in this system lies in the proven "Baroque
Background Music."
The Baroque Background Music used has 60 beats per minute. Classical
music from the Baroque Masters has been found to work the best.
This music by itself has been shown to slow the heartbeat, lower
blood pressure, and reduce stress. This creates more efficient
body rhythms. It's real power shows up when combined with accelerated
learning systems.
Research has found that this Baroque
music puts you into a state of alert relaxation-
the optimal state to enable your subconscious mind to accept desired
suggestions. It essentially opens communication pathways
to the subconscious. This is
a completely effortless method that creates lasting changes to your
subconscious belief system. You just have to press play every day
and follow the instructions on the audio's. This powerful system is made up of a
set of goalie specific Audio Scripts that you obtain right here
by downloading them as MP3's or by ordering them on CD. Complete
instructions are included either way. If you opt to download the
MP3's, you save money, and you can easily burn your own CD that
you can listen to in your portable CD player, or you can transfer
them to your portable MP3 player. This system
utilizes the appropriate scripts digitally recorded in the most
effective way to install new beliefs and to help you to achieve
maximum results in the least amount of time.
You
may be thinking that this sounds too simple to actually work.
Try it! Better yet, try it risk free! If you
implement this system for 60 days, you will be amazed at the
changes you experience. If you are at all not satisfied
with the system after implementing it for at least 60 days,
return it within 90 days for a full refund.
|
Here is just one example
of what you will experience: When you are in a close game that holds a
lot of significance, instead of hearing yourself think, "this isn't good, I never play well under this kind of pressure."
You'll hear an affirmation from one of the scripts pop into your
mind such as, "I enjoy playing against the toughest teams."
or you might hear, "I play my best when the pressure is on
me. I focus on doing my best and I let go of the outcome." Now, we all have different situations that we have
difficulties with. Some goalies perform great under pressure. Maybe
your challenge is getting "up" and really focused
when you play a poor team. The scripts in our system will
re-program your subconscious for most every situation that you face.

Testimonial
"Cory stood on
his head (as they say) and never lost heart, starting
the
very game AFTER reading your material."
"I wanted to say that after only
reading the free .PDF file our just-now-14-year-old goalie
grandson has somehow connected with what you said enough
to
have changed attitude during a tournament this past weekend
over thanksgiving. Though his team lost every game except
1 that they tied, Cory stood on his head (as they say)
and
never lost heart, starting the very game AFTER reading your
material.
I can't wait for him to begin listening
to the .mp3's I purchased for download. Contained are
not
only affrimations but just good advice from an experienced
goalie to a pee-wee."

This system has been several
years in the making and includes all of the right scripts stated
in the most effective way, set to the special 60 beats per minute
Baroque music. Many hours of research and planning went into this
system. There is no other program like this for goalies
available anywhere. My first inclination was to charge
$97 for this CD set. Even at that price, it would be an incredible
value. After much thought, I decided that it should be affordable
for every goalie, regardless of their financial situation.
At this
time, I am only charging $37 for the complete system on CD. Even
better, you can save $10 plus shipping costs
by purchasing the downloadable MP3's and burning your own CD's
or transferring them to your portable MP3 player. The
cost for the entire Goalie's Mind Mental Training Audio System
Volume I on downloadable MP3's is only $27.
These prices will eventually
increase, so take advantage now and save.

What
if there was a system that every goalie could easily implement
for as little as 40 minutes
a day, that skips all of the "psycho-babble," and goes
straight to the core belief system- and was as simple as listening
to a CD for only 40 minutes, twice a day? Now there is,
and you just found it!
